Section 8’s 15th Birthday
City beer garden Section 8 is celebrating fifteen years of laneway parties, live-music and knock-off drinks with an art-filled four-day birthday bash.
More than 55 artists are taking over the shipping container bar and its adjoining laneway. Deaf artist Gonketa is doing a live painting demonstration accompanied by subfrequencies from Amin Payne's OJ Kush and wall projections by Simbiotic Vision.
Creative duo Creature Creature is splashing bold linework across a live mural, while other pieces curated by Fort Heart and B-Side Gallery are on display in a pop-up exhibition.
For tunes, expect live sets from Afro-funk powerhouse Cool Out Sun, Jonquil Quartet & Tumi the Be, Tokyo-born violinist Elle Shimada; new Def Jam Records recruit Sadiva and more, while Bombay Sapphire and Kaiju Brewing put on an exclusive menu.
Entry is free.
